Re: [Nexus] The Sleeping Goblin III: 40% More Drow!

Trissy lets out another cute squeak.
I-I'm tired... wanna sleep... can I use your bed? Just for today?

Of course! Anytime, Just...let me talk to whoever at the door...sleep. Goodnight. Marty moves to open the door.

Claudius Hark narrows his eyes down at Romeo. What? His eyes are dark and his voice is a deep bass sound. I have a life of power and control, I don't have time for fun boy. I am disappointing with the people of the Nexus....soon though, the prophet Frolty shall spread the light of Beatra and this world will be completed. Remember, you are being judged, all your life. The gods are harsh in their judgement, but I have made a point to never sin, as should you!

How did this turn from small talk to a lecture on piety? Ah, well. It's not something Romeo isn't used to. In the old days he would have just done his best to look cowed, and nod, but two years with a kooky old wizard... "Ray of sunshine, this one," he says aside to the blind halfling. "Pardon, your Excellency, but why would Frolty come to Nexus? Why not your religion's home dimension, where your goddess has actual clout?"

Not too hard to guess where a guys back is after talking to him. It's not like Romeo has moved.

"That's sort of admirable, I guess." Romeo rather politely refrains from bringing up how he doubts they'll actually get rid of evil. "But let's stay civil, you two. We didn't mean to hurt your feelings, your excellency. There's no need to be insulting." He has a very sincere looking smile on his face as he speaks with the Archbishop.

This horror is in no way assuaged as Tom begins feeling his face itself, praying to whatever foreign gods he believes in that it is somehow unharmed, only for his fingers to sink right through the putrid, jelly-like mass that his eye has decayed into.

And before he was so well preserved for a decades old corpse...

So this is where Tom has been pushed too damn far, inciting a flicker of actual emotion from the lethargic undead. Well, more than a flicker. Much more. The last remnant of his human life is rotting away thanks to these bastards and Tom is steamed. With a worldless scream of anger he hurls himself at the nearest brother, moving in a blur as he tries to tackle Aladar to the ground and pin him there.

But the fact that these two corrupted poor Tom's form is enough for him. He unlatches his rifle from a special holding bag on his back in a swift motion that ends with the gun's safety being switched off and the gun pointed at Fenghar. At the same time, a skin-tight forcefield begins to form around his body. He'll attempt to do the same for Tom, but he doesn't know how exactly his psionic powers would effect Tom, if they would at all.

On him, however, it provides a higher level of protection strong enough to stop most forms of light arms fire. Anything stronger than that will probably be able to burst through it with little difficulty.

"It's unfortunate that you don't believe us," Fenghar says, Aladar casting a spell that'd turn the brothers and the bodies invisible which would allow them to escape whilst Fenghar moves in front of Aladar, grabs one of the bodies and attempts to kick Tom to the side and hold to body in front of him just in case the man with the rifle decided to make a move.

Re: [Nexus] The Sleeping Goblin III: 40% More Drow!

I could say the same to you. Lighten up, have a drink. The halfling fingers his magical staff, preparing a spell.

Front Door

It is here that Bellan steps in. At first, he moves to stop Sergeant Psionics - mostly put a hand on his gun to stop him. "No killing. Put that away, please." Unfortunately, this effort seems to be in vain - before his eyes, the two suspicious men disappear. Along with their charges. "Damn!"

A few minutes (in Nexus time anyways) deadtimed, and Nixa misses what could possibly have been an interesting fight to partake in. "Typical."

She's about to turn and vanish upstairs to torment her new brother - because really, nothing alleviates boredom like tossing flames in the faces of those who are susceptible to burns - but she figures it's high time she actually did something about the kidnapping.

"He's in mortal danger from a pack of werecreatures, and a mind-flayer that rips apart the brains of weak-willed beings." Which includes her, actually, not that she'd ever admit to her own time spent there. For now, she just wants to see what reaction that sentence would get her.

Re: [Nexus] The Sleeping Goblin III: 40% More Drow!

The halfling raises an eyebrow above his blindfold, and one of finger twitch as he grips his staff more tightly. Really now. Could you tell me where exactly that is?

Re: [Nexus] The Sleeping Goblin III: 40% More Drow!

Not the reaction she was expecting. He sounded nearly unconcerned, though she hadn't missed the slight tensing. Interesting.

"Exactly? Hmmm... well, he's most likely locked in a cell with a few predators, awaiting the mindflayer, deep inside the main stone castle of Beren's Hold - also known as the Hold of the Tyrant - on a planet you cannot reach by any means other than prayer or a really, really powerful teleportation spell." Or a few other less imposing sounding manners.

"I could, yes," Nixa answers, leaning forward a little on the banister, "but I doubt you'd do very well to just appear there and try to thread your way through to him."

She begins to walk down to him. "I wonder why you care, anyways? Who are you to my little brother?"

The halfling fingers his blindfold.

Well I.... ah.... raised him from age three. You're his sister?

"You raised him, and you don't even know he has siblings?" No, as long as Nixa has the chance to act superior and skeptical, she's not about to mention that she herself only found out today that she has four brothers instead of only two.

Re: [Nexus] The Sleeping Goblin III: 40% More Drow!

"No. You're forgetting Vierzt. Which means we're either quadruplets or, as is significantly more likely, a bizarre genetic experiment by the drows." That's the only explanation Nixa has, anyways.

"Not that it matters much. All you need know is that I believe that if Akoraun is so idiotic as to get himself nabbed, he can suffer the consequences." Which is not how she feels. She really does want to help. It's her own planet, her own brother, by all means she should already be there, trying to get him back. But this wasn't some irritating lordling or prince she could fry on his 'throne', but a mindflayer who knows her exact weaknesses, who was an expert at cracking into minds and tearing around thoughts and emotions. She had to play this carefully. "Of course, if you rounded up a few people to take over... if I knew there was no way this could fail... if I had a promise sealed in blood that you wouldn't leave anyone, especially not me, in the hands of that creature, then I could perhaps take you there."

Re: [Nexus] The Sleeping Goblin III: 40% More Drow!

Vierzt? Never heard of him. Probably quadruplets though, as you all that I seem to know about are naturally born together... He winces a little.
Are you insane? He's your own brother. His tone is serious, deadly serious, and very stony. We don't need any people. We only need me, a few of my fires, some animals and you. Maybe this "Vierzt." I'd like to meet him. The hafling's voice is tight. You should take me, young lady. It would be easier. I'm going to get there either way.

Re: [Nexus] The Sleeping Goblin III: 40% More Drow!

Is Nixa insane? Perhaps. The same can be said for most, if not all, of her dragon-siblings. Heck, maybe even the drow ones too!

"Have you any idea how rare naturally occurring quadruplets are? I certainly don't, but it's nothing I've ever heard of on Laira. This is the drow we're talking about here, my bet is still on genetic experiments." Or maybe that's just paranoia.

"Ooh, yes, you'd be perfect fodder for his critters. And while they're dining on you, I could sneak past and free Akoraun. What a foolproof plan!" Usually it'd be just like Nixa to march in without any thought to anything, and try to purge everything with fire. But this time? "Yes, Vierzt could help perhaps. We'll need an alchemist too though, or a cleric, or someone who can do something about Beren's mind-control techniques... but make no mistake, I will not follow in your footsteps. I am in charge here, do not forget that halfling." Nixa has a minor obsession with dominance statures. It's never wise to argue power with a dragon.

Claudius glares over and says, You need a cleric? I could...be of assistance.

Just then, a strange man enters. He wears black shades over his eyes and smiles with arrogance and confidence. He is balding, with just a few hairs on his head. He's only about 35 though. He wears a blue shirt with green pants and a brown coat. He wears a long, bright yellow cape and yellow gloves. His bright yellow boots stand out too. He carries a long rifle, yellow of course, which he seems to show off. He moves right over to Nixa, stepping right in front of Claudius, which earns him a glare from the tall priest. He then spontaneously speaks out. Greetings denizens of this little inn! Never fear, for Rick Brutal is here! I have come to be awesome and do stuff! Claudius stops glaring at Rick's final sentence and just facepalms.

Nixa strides over to the cleric, circles him once, and then nods approval. "If you truly wish, you may join us. Perhaps you and the halfling together can keep Beren from our minds. He likes to drive you lesser beings insane."

Leaving the cleric, she walks to the door of the tavern and leans against the frame, staring out. "Vierzt left in a huff a half hour ago after I shoved him out the door. He could be anywhere by now. Fuming, is the most likely bet."
